1969 Gmc Custom Truck on 2040-cars

I have a project 1969 GMC Custom Longbed Truck with a 350 engine. Truck is just about complete. I have a clean title, truck does turn over with no issue, I see almost no dents. Truck is A/C & Heater ready (meaning it is already installed on truck) & has the big glass back window. 
I do not want to sell, but I am way too busy to work on, with classes, full time work (I am an accountant), & studying for my CPA (Certified Public Accountant) Exams, plus I have a 3 year old little girl that DEMANDS/COMMANDS all my attention. :)

The only BADs:
* Carburetor needs to be rebuilt.
* Gas tank needs cleaning. (estimates about $100.00+/- for any local shops to professional clean) (note this truck has a 2nd gas tank that is working fine that I re-routed the gas lines to so truck will run)
* Whoever last had truck - jacked up the wiring - needs to be re-done. (Complete wire harness from LMC magazine is about $600.00+/-)
* Tires need to be replaced. (estimates about $25.00 a tire for good used tires at any local used tire shops) - (still has all 4 original GMC hubcaps)
* Drum Brakes are shot. (estimates about $400+/- for any local shop to convert to discs).

Other than that just need outside mirrors, a paint job, and maybe some interior work done. I have original door covers, arm covers, rearview mirror, carburetor cover, seat belts. 
Again this truck is amazing - Chevys are a dime a dozen, Fords are everywhere, the old Dodge's body tend to bend in the middle - these GMCs are more classic because not many were made opposed to their counterparts and with the double headlights (only trucks that have those) and this is also a Custom truck meaning even less of these were made; I could sell for much more since you can see other GMCs around the same year non-Customs are selling for a little less, the same, or more, but they have no engine/transmission and are all rusted and dented out. Mine turns over with ease, I have listed all the main issues, & it was supposed to be my Zompacolypse get-way machine.
Come check it out and we can talk about price all day, but I need to know it is getting a place unlike mine where it has sat for over a year.
God Bless and lets see if we can work a deal - I am open for anything other than trades - in other words no trades.

GM 6.2L EcoTec V8 rated at 21 mpg by the EPA

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

General Motors is already laying claim to best-in-class power for its new 6.2-liter V8 that will be offered in the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra this fall, and now it has released fuel economy numbers for the big engine. Available as an option on the Silverado LTZ and High Country (shown above) models as well as the the Sierra SLT and Denali trims, the 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 will return 15 miles per gallon in the city and 21 mpg on the highway on rear-wheel-drive trucks; these numbers drop by one mpg each on four-wheel-drive models.
These estimates are in addition to the engine's 420 horsepower, 460 pound-feet of torque and max trailering capacity of 12,000 pounds, and considering all that power it's not terribly far away from the fuel economy of GM's equally new 4.3-liter V6 and its rating of 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway. This announcement comes just days after a report indicated that GM is unable to keep up with the demand of the 5.3-liter V8 in the fullsize Chevy and GMC trucks due to supplier issues. GM's official press release for the 6.2-liter V8's fuel economy is posted below.

GM recall woes continue with 662,000 pickups trucks and Cruze sedans

Sat, 29 Mar 2014

General Motors can't seem to get its name out of the "bad news" column. Two more recalls were announced late Friday evening that will see The General calling in 490,200 fullsize pickup trucks and SUVs, along with 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze models.
For those keeping track, General Motors has issued recalls for an alarming 4.8 million vehicles so far since last month.
The Chevy Silverado 1500, Tahoe and Suburban, GMC Sierra 1500 and Yukon models from the 2014 and 2015 model years are being recalled for a flaw in their transmissions wherein loose oil cooler lines may cause a fire. The automaker said in a statement (see below) that it knows of three incidents of loose transmission lines causing problems, but no injuries. We can't confirm whether it was this transmission issue that caused the widely publicized blaze that consumed a 2015 GMC Yukon that was being test driven in California.

GM recalling Silverado and Sierra HD diesel pickups over fuel gauge follies

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

General Motors is recalling 9,733 of its heavy-duty twins over concerns with their 6.6-liter diesel engines and dual fuel tanks. The recall covers some Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD pickups from model years 2012 and 2013, although the exact dates that the recalled trucks were built isn't specified. There's also no mention of how many models come from Chevrolet and how many are from GMC.
The problem rests with the transfer pump responsible for moving fuel from the rear tank to the front tank - it could fail, resulting in an inaccurate fuel gauge. It hardly requires explaining, but a faulty fuel gauge could leave drivers in a situation where they run out of diesel.
GM will begin notifying customers of affected vehicles, who will be asked to report to their dealers for a free replacement transfer pump.
